Stuttered Vows

[DeirdreScott]

A scream in tormented passion
the prelude to a wedding of fashion
To have and to hold forever (in ration)
That is what we promised with compassion

At the alter we stuttered, deranged
Forgot the words that subtly changed
us from two organisms often estranged
into one single twisted entity rearranged

WE promised to live forever
by the other's side and never
would we separate but how fate
is so cruel and now we simply hate

the other and cannot stand
to even touch the other's hand
where we wear our golden brands
we've given up on our Promised Land

There is no coming back from this point
WE've torn asunder what God did appoint
cast aside crowns that marriage did anoint
We cannot live apart but reached the end point...

this is painful. i find it important, the suggesting of "WE". definitely eludes to an idea not blatantly suggested. i hope you're better since this.

Yeah... This poem is very personal yet not inspired by my personal life, really... It IS something that runs through my mind whenever i find a guy that I find interesting and sweet... I mean... when married people got married, they had to love each other, right?
but now it seems that marriage is just a convenience thing...
It isn't real....
I've never been married, or close to it... ever.
Thank god for small favors.
Been in love, though.. Can't wait for the next fall. :D

*Hugs Rare*

Well I have been married and it basically ended in the same way as your poem,, powerful for me when i read it,,, It is werid,, i look at marriage so much more seriously then i did before,, and i thought i did before... but it is unreal when you think what goes in and what is needed for a marriage.

great work girl,, i am impressed
